Lassie is a German Shepherd with a smidge of Collie.
She was found in Melrose Park in September 2014 and transferred to foster care. She has adjusted beautifully to living with kids, a grouchy 10 year old dog, a big goofy dog and a really high energy little dog.
Lassie has also learned that cates make the rules, but don't have to follow them. She is house broken and crate trained and goes in the crate easily. Especially if treats are involved.
Lassie is very people oriented. She loves her people pack.
Lassie is very smart. Learning not to jump up on everyone and has gotten out of her digging habit.
Sweet temperament. Loves belly rubs. She knows Sit, Down, Come, Leave it, and Stay
She is also leash trained.
Lassie is ready to be a treasured member of your family. She is a very special girl.
